We run Xmx at the JVM limit of 2048m in our [EMAIL PROTECTED]  production.

Very interesting.  I just changed our web server JVM options from:


                                    -Xms128m –Xmx256m


To:


                                    -Xms128m -Xmx512m


and it corrected the heap space error. I’m worried though, because we are getting ready to load thousands more documents into DSpace and I’m wondering at what point we will start getting this error again. I agree with François that it appears DSpace is cycling through every record in the Collection doing something (I’m not sure what since I was just updating the Collection description) and because there are 44,938 records in this Collection and the Java heap space was filled up.

Unfortunately, I agree with Susan.
We have a 300K items collection that we cannot upgrade (only changing the description is not possible). It happens only on THAT collection (and not on the other ones in the same DSpace 1.4.2). I did not look far inside, but it seems that DSpace loads all the documents of the collection to be updated during the update!

I'm not on that problem right now.

Which memory settings might be too low?


I'm thinking it has to be related to the increased number of records in our database since this is the first time I've ever seen the error and because it doesn't happen in our test instance (where our source code mirrors our production system). I can't imagine though, what could be happening in edit-communities where all we are trying to do is update one row in the collection table….??

This can be caused by something else happening on the server. Basically your instance has used up its JVM heap space and any new calls into the system results in an OutOf Memory error. Of you can restart and try the task again, you may find that the issue is gone, if its still there, then you have an issue that being cause by your request more specifically. Monitor/Search your dspace logs and see if you have more occuarnces of this than this one case. It may either mean:


1.) your memory settings are too low.


2.) something is causing a memory leak, i.e. not releasing its resources or falling into infinite loops.

I am getting an error while trying to update a Collection (collection name and description) – see below from dspace.log. This is the first time I've seen this error. The strange thing is that it doesn't happen in our Test instance – but our Test instance only has 101 Items in it. We've recently been adding lots of new items to our repository and our Item count is now at 90,490. This is kind of scary, since we have thousands and thousands more items we are planning on adding to DSpace in the next few months.

We are currently running 1.4.2 and are planning to implement 1.5 soon.

Can anyone help with this error?

Thanks,

Sue
